Kkh subsidized birth & ward experience

Hi ftm here i still havent decide if i want to stick to kkh subsidized to save money or change to private so i can get A1 ward(mainly cause i want my husband to stayover, but also scared the bill will be too expensive) Can mummies share your experience giving birth @ kkh under subsidized and how was the hospital stay/ward? Is the ward air conditioned? Is it noisy? And can husband be with us after delivery when we are pushed to our ward? For normal with no complication, we would need to stay 1 or 2 nights there ? #firsttimemom

I was a subsidized patient until week 32. I switched to private in week 32 and went for 3 private appointments before giving birth (in Jan 2023). You can see my total bill (antenatal included) posted here: https://community.theasianparent.com/q/im-thinking-changing-private-gynae-at-kkh-3rd-trim-currently-still-under-subs/4742422?d=ios&ct=q&share=true Yes I changed to private because I wanted my hubby to accompany me. Mine was induced labour (took 34.5 hours in total) and I stayed for 3D2N. If I recall correctly I paid $3+k in cash after Medisave. I think if natural and staying for 2D1N, the bill is cheaper.
